The range of American "strategic artillery" is 1600 km.

The real range of the US "strategic artillery" is 1600 km.

The "strategic long-range artillery" displayed in the US military poster reported that the US Army held a demonstration of the modernization of the US and British troops at Aberdeen proving ground in Maryland on February 20th. The US military said in a statement: "Officials from the US Army Command, the Army Combat Capability Development Command and other departments introduced the interoperability between the US and British armed forces, thus achieving the goal of minimizing differences."

The US military also posted some posters at the scene, one of which showed a schematic diagram of the US military's new "strategic long-range artillery" and marked its range as 1000 miles. This is a vehicle-mounted long-range artillery launching system, which can launch powerful firepower within the strategic scope of multi-battlefield operations. This strategic long-range artillery will be composed of four units, including artillery and heavy transport platform, and each artillery system will be equipped with 8 operators.

Among the many gun models displayed on the spot, a black large-caliber gun model is also quite eye-catching. At the beginning of 20 19, Mark Esper, then secretary of the US Army, said that the US military was developing a super gun with a range of 1000 miles to help the US navy "kick the door" under the PLA's "regional refusal" strategy.

An expert from China interviewed by Global Times said that the firearms of various countries' armed forces are restricted by various factors, and it is difficult to improve greatly after the range exceeds100km. Even the railgun being developed by the US military has a maximum range of only about 300 kilometers, which is far from the reported 1000 mile. Therefore, the final model of the "extended range gun system" mentioned by Speer may be a long-range rocket launcher.

Among the many gun models displayed on the spot, a black large-caliber gun model is also quite eye-catching. This is not the first time Speer has promoted the "extended range gun system" in public. Since taking office, he has repeatedly stressed the importance of this long-range strike system. Experts said that Speer's remarks may be related to the current embarrassing situation of the US Army.

Since the U.S. military gradually withdrew from Afghanistan, Iraq and other anti-terrorism battlefields, in order to deal with traditional powers such as China and Russia, the Pentagon has focused on developing naval and air forces, and the importance of the army has greatly declined, becoming a "second-class citizen." Therefore, the US Army must re-present its strategic value. This time, Speer advocated using the "extended range gun system" to "kick the door" for other services, in order to highlight the importance of the army and strive for more military funding.
